  • To be fair, it wasn’t people “simply forgetting over generations.”

    There was the problem with underfunded teachers, and some states literally burned books.

    Economically, the little that is actually taught was decided by rich peoples’ funding. University tuition costs went up too.

    Also modern social media is an extremely sophisticated propoganda. Dystopian, even.

    So I am hopeful in the case we become anti-war, we can use that anti-war rhetoric and recent history to become pro-education as well.

    Then we will ensure next generation knows war sucks. It will only be a struggle between anti and pro education afterwards.












  • Turned 20 last week. I found lemmy through reddit about 2 years ago.

    Backstory :

    My parents had flat refused home internet until 2020 when online classes made it a requirement.

    Since I am 14, at home, and just got introduced to the wide world of web, I looked up tutorials on becoming a hacker like in the movies and got into linux.

    General social media was still too overwhelming for me but I did like reddit for the linux content. I later saw the “about” page of r/unixsocks explaining they are on c/unixsocks now.

    I checked lemmy and community was better here, also reddit had and alt-right problem so I decided to migrate.
